My approach is collaborative and casual. I utilize evidence-based techniques, with a little humor, to meet you where you're at and help you move forward. I am a strengths-based person-centered therapist, which means I focus on your natural strengths rather than what you perceive your weaknesses to be. I think it is important for you to know that I see each of my clients for the person they are and genuinely want to help them to reach their fullest potential. In my years of experience in mental health care, I developed a wide range of therapeutic tools to use when finely tuning each session to your needs. My approach draws on principles from my training in EMDR, ACT, DBT, IFS, and many others. In my time in this field, I have noticed that healing is not one size fits all and the most effective treatment comes from utilizing several treatment modalities that meet the individual needs of each person. Therefore, it is important for me to get to know each of my clients and use that relationship and understanding to craft a therapeutic experience that fits your specific needs.

Not even remotely! I feel that trauma is a word that encompasses many things, and often underlies much of the work I do with clients. I'm also well versed in working with grief and loss, medical trauma, sexual assault, and affairs.

How much does therapy cost?

Individual sessions are $180 for a 50-minute session. Couples sessions are $200 for a 50-minute session. I currently do not participate in any insurance plans. Depending on your health insurance plan, it is possible for services to be reimbursed in full or in part. Many of my clients report receiving partial or full reimbursements. Please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates you for out-of-network services. If requested, I can provide you a receipt for you to send to your insurance. I believe that therapy should be affordable and accessible, so reduced fee services are available. If you feel like we would be a good fit, and finances are the barrier, please reach out to me and let's talk!

Victim’s Compensation Assistance Program

Pennsylvania offers financial support of up to $10,000 for survivors of sexual assault and abuse, and other crimes. If you have experienced a sexual assault or abuse in PA, regardless of whether you filed a police report, you are likely eligible to receive funding towards the cost of therapy services. If you have experienced another type of crime in the state of PA, and have filed a police report, you are likely also eligible for VCAP funding. As a VCAP provider, I am able to work with you and receive funding directly from VCAP to help you pay for services. Feel free to reach out and ask me for more information or explore VCAP's website.
